Ever since Pauly Shore announced that he is doing a biopic about Richard Simmons, who has been living a private life since 2014, The Weight Saint has been posting on social media.
Yesterday, Simmons scared his fans because he wrote, “I have some news to tell you. Please don’t be sad. I am….dying. Oh I can see your faces now. The truth is we all are dying. Every day we live we are getting closer to our death.”
And people were assuming that meant his death was imminent. So people and the press started reaching out to the 75-year-old to see if he is OK.
“Sorry many of you have gotten upset about my message today. Even the press has gotten in touch with me. I am not dying,” Simmons wrote. “It was a message about saying how we should embrace every day that we have. Sorry for this confusion.”
So, there you have it; he is not going anywhere anytime soon.
However, today, he revealed that he has/had Basel Cell Carcinoma. Although it is a two-part post, so he did not tell us if he beat it.
Tune in tomorrow to How the Richard Simmons Turns to find out.
